The embassy has based its strategy of cooperation between the two states on the priorities of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia. The familiarity of Slavic languages in the region and membership of both countries in the Forum of Slavic Cultures International Foundation serves as a backbone of cultural cooperation, exchange, and further development in the bilateral relations.
